During Autumn semester 2017, as part of her course HISTART 5222 Later Islamic Art, ACLS Post-doc Fellow Emily Neumeier took 12 undergrads to the Cleveland Museum of Art. Together they saw the Islamic galleries, which also included contemporary art by Lalla Essaydi and Afruz Amighi, and they also visited the special exhibition "Art and Stories from Mughal India."
After the trip, students were asked to design multimedia tours exploring different themes in Islamic art, and incorporated video, 3D models, and proposals for interactive features that could be implemented in the museum's Gallery One space.
